The additional power was from idle up so it doesn't wait till you are building boost then violently make the power like some of these boxes do.
I guess I am saying that I disagree with you.....

On the other hand, injectors and turbos aren't cheap.....

Exhaust and final drive gearing are potential options that wouldn't cause much havoc. Smaller wheels and tires and lower gearing for more final drive torque? Lose the muffler?

IMHO, changing the turbo and injectors without modifying engine management for the changes is dangerous, expensive, and inefficient.
